Loop Device Support of a Kernel on an Android device is utilized to mount a Linux Distro IMG file (Ubuntu or Debian, & a couple others) to run the linux img in a Chrooted environment to run side by side next to your Android System.

Hmm..... you can but it is useless to use linux due to the small screen and the RAM is way too little to run desktop linux properly.
Android itself is builded on linux kernel.

[Q] Anyone working on dual-boot?

Didn't search the forum before posting?
There are any number of variations on multi boot from Hashcode's Safestrap here to Tasssadar's multiboot for Nexus. And related proprietary modes that resemble user profiles e.g. Samsung's kids mode.
Google had also announced that full multi-user profiles would be supported from 4.2 /4.3 forward. But they subsequently restricted the feature to tablets and haven't done much with it since.
But you are probably thinking more about booting into something like Kali linux There have been a few threads about that. And it has been done for the S4, Note, Nexus, etc. A bit soon to expect it on the S5 as it has only been released for a couple of months. And it's a new processor too. Do you want to develop it for is?

Thanks for the reply. I did search "Ubuntu" and "Linux" within the S5 forum but nothing but a firmware dump or porting popped up. I'm new to Android and a bit wary of risking device trying to piece together methods from other devices. I don't care about Kali, just Linux OS i can boot into, not needing to vnc into a virtual environment.

Bump!! just looking for help with starting a port
<edit>
update #1 - I have built a kali nethunter kernel for the sm-t330nu, however am currently at a standstill due to "qualcomm secure boot".
I am able to flash CF_AUTOROOT, or philz touch recovery, but not able to flash my kernel to test or even load into fastboot. So project is stalled untill i can bypass csb secure boot. </edit>

Well,at this point, Im back and forth between kali kernel flashing (still no luck due to the selinux/knox issues with samsung) and attempting to build a slim, pre-rooted rom for the same device. (same issue) So, sadly untill im able to remove these obstacles, or someone comes out with an insecure kernel for this device, im stuck.
p.s. This is also my first real attempt at any android dev..... so option #2 is far more likely lol
p.p.s for more info on my struggle check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-4/help/qualcomm-secure-boot-weird-issue-t3065875 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2702567 big thanks to MOONBUTT74 for all the help!
Any updates?

Can I install kali nethunter on Nexus 4?

I repaired my nexus 4. (I bought a secondhand broken device to install a kali nethunter)
I wanted to install kali nethunter, but I don't think it's supporting my device anymore as the version has been updated.
I tried to download version 1.1, but I couldn't find a possible site.
Does anyone have a solution or 1.1 version?
Just yesterday I installed it on a Galaxy Note 10. The list of compatible Galaxy devices ends with Galaxy Tab S4 (Oreo). I'm running Android 11 on a rooted Note 10, lol. What I did was flash the "Generic ARM64". It flashed fine but not a whole lot actually works though. The kali-terminal is probably the best thing about it. You have a Nexus 4, it looks like Nexus 5 and above are on the list. I'm not saying you should, I'm just letting you know that the Generic one worked for me.

Nexus 4 has ARMv7 so Generic might not work.
@131101 It can also brick your phone, just be careful.

Doesn't ARMv7 support ARMhf?
Let's us know what you decide to do. I should have mentioned to be careful of the ARM version and that it's the same as the version you install, if you install any at all.
Oh yeah, I forgot to meantion that you can and probably should extract the zip file and find the .apk's and install them rather than flashing the zip. I have a rooted S8 with a locked bootloader and I can't tell the difference from the phone I flashed the zip on and the one I manually installed the apk. Most things don't work equally on both, lol.

Galaxy S8 [SM-G950F] Kali Nethunter

Hello, does anyone have a compiled kernel for Galaxy S8 Exynos [SM-G950F] that supports HID and External network card? I need to equip this phone with Kali Nethunter.
Looking for some compilations I came across something like this:
https://gitlab.com/kalilinux/nethun...tree/171563c6970e65c4a1ff71eaeddb303cde5f0f89
This is the first time I'm dealing with kernel compilation, and creating installation zip package.
So my questions are:
1. has anyone already installed Nethunter on this device?
2. Is there any hardware limitation on this device that prevents it from using HID and External network card potential (e.g. Monitor Mode etc.)?
3. If the hardware on this phone can handle it, can the resources in the link I sent above handle it all?
4. if the link I sent doesn't help, is there anyone who has a kernel and TWRP installation package for this phone, so that everything I mentioned above works?
I apologize in advance if my questions are incorrect. My experience in modifying Android is limited, as so far it has been based on thin modification of roms prepared by other developers.
Thanks!
Have installed nethunter store on g950v flashed to g950u. Rooted with magisk system root..... bootloader 8 [ yes locked bootloader].. nougat .....
Installed privelege escalation extension in the store and converted to system app with an app from playstore..... I know that's probably not the right way to do that but it seems to have worked fine and I'm not sure where to find these ota zips.... new to kali and only a linux novice......
Would love to figure out the right way to get chroot installed.and the full kali kernel\rom overlay...
Can anyone tell me if this is even possible on thia device ? Or would it break my system ?
If its possible can anyone tell me which ota zip I need to flash in safestrap{twrp} . I see a precompiled kernel for the g950f and I, wondering if that would work? And if not whay would be the proper procedure for installing kali on my device ? Any pointers or advice would be greatly appreciated.
I've opened the nethunter manager app and tried installing with the default settings but I get an error.
I'm thinking I may need to change the install directory but again I really don't know where I should change it to.
I love tinkering with my samsung devices and would really like to play around with kali if I could get it properly installed.
I understand that functionality may be limited on my device since there doesn't seem to be anything posted online that I can find about kali and the g950u.
I guess the locled bootloader tends to make people shy away from the snapdragon devices.
This is my 2nd s8 and its still a great device after all these years. I would
love to see some renewed interest in this device and hopefully with kali or any custom roms other tha. The basic nougat with gapps...
